Palin's bloodsport - film footage of aeriel wolf slaughter, and legislation to end it
"Alaska is truly our nation's last frontier. It is also the last place in the U.S. where a few hunters still use aircraft to chase and kill wolves. They shoot these animals from the air or chase them to exhaustion before landing and shooting them point blank."
"Congress passed a law thirty five years ago to put an end to aerial hunting. But Alaska is exploiting a loophole in federal law to resume the practice, not only for wolves, but bears as well."
Sarah Palin recently offered 180 pilots and gunners $150. for each left leg from a fresh killed wolf. Another source states Palin spent $400,000.00 in taxpayer dollars in a massive PR campaign to promote aerial killing of wolves and bears. Watch the video.
"Rep. George Miller (CA) has introduced the Protect America's Wildlife (PAW) Act, legislation to close a federal loophole and curb Alaska's brutal aerial hunting program -- and prevent programs like it from spreading to places like the Greater Yellowstone region." You can find out if your legislator is a co-sponsor here, and sign a petition to show your support here.
Ironically, the appointment of Sarah Palin as Republican VP may be the best thing that ever happened to the wild Alaskan wolf. And the video in the above link might be the worst thing to happen to Sarah Palin.
Remember when Republicans were the leaders in the conservation movement?
Let it play through while you watch something else then come back and rewind. There's a photograph at the end of Palin and her friends at some sort of bizarro wolfskin costume party.
For those ladies that think Palin is someone just like them, a mother they can identify with, this shows a side of her that might cause them to think again.
This is the photo.

And I was using the term "barbaric" in a not-so-good way - but they really ARE barbaric. ...I guess that explains it.
Wow... our party has just slipped into the Twilight Zone.
I have no problem hunting for food. That is part of life. To shoot one for self protection or to protect stock I can understand Death is part of life… but is this? Barbaric doesn’t describe it. To slaughter these noble animals so rich people can kill moose so completely disgusts me I have no words for it. To murder these animals in such an inhumane manner, and it is murder, these animals have no chance! It isn’t even a slaughter, which implies the humane laws we apply to killing our stock animals.
How does she call herself a conservationist?
Now I'm a hunter. I learned to use a rifle when I was about eight years old. I could hit a can at one hundred yards when I was thirteen and by sixteen, I could pick off targets in competion at 200 + yards.
And I find that sick. I shot a caged coon I expected to have rabies last week, and that's the ONLY time I shot a caged animal, but it had rabies.
This is just too cruel. There's no words to describe it.
As if I weren't fired up enough already, this has sent me over the top! As a biology major in college, I learned early and often how vital predators are to a healthy ecosystem. Take out the wolves and the moose get messed up - wolves remove the old and sick, but trophy hunters take out the best genetic stock they can find. Not to mention just how unsportsman-like hunting from a plane is.
I'm sending this video to everyone in my address book!
A healthy wolf population has many benefits and actually has proven out to be a critital part of a strong balanced ecosystem. Here is a link to an article about the positive impact wolves have that articulates those benefits much better than I can.
